Subject: [PATCH v6 00/16] New remote-hg helper:w
Date: Sun, 4 Nov 2012 03:13:22 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1351995218-19889-1-git-send-email-felipe.contreras@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
Only a few updates, and has been moved to contrib/remote-helpers
(git-remote-bzr is on the way).
This remote-hg has advantages other tools don't have:
* Uses transport-helper (git clone hg::path)
* The code is small
* The code is simple
* No external dependencies (other than mercurial)
* It's easy to install (put into your path)
* Has extensive tests (for real)
* Active development
* Has compatibility with hg-git
* The required patches are available
* No changes necesary to git core
* Support for bookmarks
* Support for tags
One important alternative is the one written by Sverre Rabbelier that is
now maintained and distributed in msysgit. A list of issues with that
approach (not exhaustive):
* Doesn't work on newer versions of mercurial
* There are multiple versions, each with different issues
* Don't pass a single of this remote-hg's tests
To use it add it to your $PATH (e.g. ~/bin).
% git clone hd:///full/path/or/url/to/hg/repo
To run the tests:
% make -C contrib/remote-helpers test
The only caveat is that you need 'python' in your $PATH.
Changes since v5:
* Move to contrib/remote-helpers
* Reorganize tests
* Fix update of bookmarks
* Fix for older versions of python
* Performance improvements
* Improve default branch/bookmark handling
* Add fixes test-lib
* Cleanups
